It was the perfect economic system for entrapment. In order to get any job, you were forced to spend the first 25 years of your life in schooling of some sort. The problem was that affording to go there put most people into a debt that they could never get out of. This meant that you were forced to take whatever jobs were offered, and as robotics replaced human jobs, more and more people were pushing for the same positions.
But right now, you were in a lecture that couldn’t help with any of that. You were in woman’s studies. Something that was implemented after 10th wave feminism took the continent by storm in a rigged election. Now it was mandatory for all students to learn about the value of women as superiors, in several courses in order to graduate.
Your professor was a tall male in his 40’s, with surprisingly full hair for his age.
“Can anyone tell me what this is?” he asked, as he held up a small pill capsule. While the majority of the students knew the answer, none raised their hands to admit it.
“This is called the liberator. This one pill stopped a world war, and single-handedly fixed uneven birthrates in developing nations. Have any of you heard of this?” he continued. There were hundreds of clicking noises from the students, and their tablets took down their response. The result was a whopping 95% response rate, saying ‘yes.’
“I thought so. The simple response is that it switches the users XX or XY chromosomes to the opposite. It turns men into woman, and woman into men. Pretty simple, right? Well, wrong. It’s true that the early designs of the pill did that, with disastrous results, the new pill completely alters nearly every single aspect of your body.”
The professor went on to click on the lecture slides, showing victims of the early pill trials in pain. Most of them were Chinese men, laying in hospital beds, as it showed their bodies rejecting their male organs. It was incredibly disturbing.
“The women resulting from these experiments kept their male bone structure, but were infertile. This was kept secret by the Qinglin Government, as they threatened the ‘women’s’ families if they told anyone of their previous lives as men. The women were then sent to other villages, to marry the young men, in order to balance China’s birth control policies.”
A new image went on the giant two story screen. It was a computer-generated version of a male body. With a click of a button, it morphed into a female one. “As science increased, and humanity seriously started looking at Martian settlements, the ‘liberator’ technology was reworked to be safer, reversible, and more effective. If a colony needed women for creating and nursing kids, it could do so, if it needed men for heavy moving, it could also have those. At this point, sex became not something limited by birth, but a choice. This was thanks to the liberator 2.0,” the professor explained.
The professor went on to show how the 2.0 version of the pill acted as a self contained virus at various stages, starting with morphing the bones, then rearranging the internal organs, then changing the subtler things, line the skin type, and hair. He went into detail about how the process would stop if a girl was pregnant, and has a reversal, two years after nursing, to prevent a miscarriage. He also went on to explain that all male prisoners were forced the drug in order to make the prison stays safer.
“Now, for a special guest, I have Stacy,” the professor said, as he clapped, and allowed a skinny man to walk on the stage beside him. “Stacy has been convicted three times, and has undergone this process each time. He is here today as part of his probation to show you the effects of the liberator. The students politely clapped.
“Thank you.” Stacy said with a feminine tinge to her voice. “I am going to show you all the transformation, but before I do, I want to explain to you a bit of the culture around this drug. There are problems with this.”
“As you can imagine identity theft is much easier with this, as well as being a fugitive. The Liberator has its official pills closely monitored, but before that system was perfected, some of the pills made it to the street, and were reverse-engineered. As you can guess, these are mostly based on older models and not as safe for consumption. There are also ways to beat this system, and alter your body chemistry. If you want bigger breasts, you drink some milk before taking the pill, if you want to be a more muscular male, you hake this pill right after having a work out.”
Many of the class were fascinated, this was information that was not explained a lot.
“In order to speed up the process, and maintain the body, the pill has an after effect of producing testosterone, or estrogen, from anything you consume, which effects the brain. Want to think girly thoughts, eat more sugar, want to think manly thoughts, eat meat,” Stacy explained.
There was a pause, before Stacy started talking again. “Of course, the pill is just the safest way to change this, there have been experiments to get other ways to mimic the Liberator. If you can sneak one into prison and become a man, you pretty much run the place.”
With that, Stacy swallowed the pill, and sat down. Five minutes later, she vomited, and her body changed before everyone’s eyes. Stacy stood up, looking like a voluptuous woman.
“Any questions?” she asked. Her answer was a thunderous sound of applause, as the students got to witness the change in person for the first time ever.
The rest of the class was uneventful. Your friends Adam and Carly went to you after the lecture, and asked if you wanted to go to the glow-club on Saturday.
